If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing well. If it is worth having, it is worth waiting for. If it is worth attaining, it is worth fighting for. If it is worth experiencing, it is worth putting aside time for.

Yours is with your time here
Dream your dreams but don't pretend

Caitlin Moran/How to Build a Girl

"And when you are being kissed like this, you are Christmas Day, you are the Moon Shot; you are field larks. My shoes were suddenly worth a million pounds, and my breath was the ethyl in champagne. When someone kisses you like this, you are the point of everything."

I folkviseton

Kärleken är så förunderligt stark
kuvas av intet i världen.
Rosor slår ut ur den hårdaste mark
som sol över mörka gärden.

Mitt hjärta är ditt,
ditt hjärta är mitt
och aldrig jag lämnar det åter.
Min lycka är din,
din lycka är min
och gråten är min när du gråter.

Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars

lovely day

When the day that lies ahead of me
Seems impossible to face
When someone else instead of me
Always seems to know the way
Then I look at you
And the world's alright with me
Just one look at you
And I know it's gonna be
A lovely day

not everything...

Not everything is supposed to become something beautiful and long-lasting. Sometimes people come into your life to show you what is right and what is wrong, to show you who you can be, to teach you to love yourself [...] Not everyone is going to stay forever, and we still have to keep on going and thank them for what they’ve given us.

tomorrow is a new day

Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day. You shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.

til ettertanke

Om jeg vil lykkes
med å føre et menneske mot et bestemt mål
må jeg først finne det, der det er
og begynne akkurat der


Den som ikke kan det
lurer seg selv
når han tror han hjelper andre

For å hjelpe noen
må jeg imidlertid forstå mer enn hva han gjør
med først og fremst
forstå det han forstår

Om jeg ikke kan det
så hjelper det ikke at jeg kan og vet mer


Vil jeg allikevel vise hvor mye jeg kan
så er det fordi jeg er forfengelig og hovmodig
og egentlig vil bli beundret av den andre
istedenfor å hjelpe han


All ekte hjelpsomhet
begynner med ydmykhet for den jeg vil hjelpe
og dermed må jeg forstå
at det å hjelpe
ikke er å ville herske
men å ville tjene


Kan jeg ikke dette, så kan jeg heller
ikke hjelpe noen

från en stygg flicka

Jag hoppas du inte alls har det bra. 
Jag hoppas du ligger vaken som jag 
och känner dig lustigt glad och rörd 
och yr och ängslig och mycket störd. 
Och rätt som det är, så får du brått 
att lägga dig rätt för att sova gott. 
Jag hoppas det dröjer en liten stund... 
Jag hoppas du inte får en blund!

Ja visst gör det ont (karin boye)

Ja visst gör det ont när knoppar brister.
Varför skulle annars våren tveka?
Varför skulle all vår heta längtan  
bindas i det frusna bitterbleka?
Höljet var ju knoppen hela vintern.
Vad är det för nytt, som tär och spränger?
Ja visst gör det ont när knoppar brister,
ont för det som växer
                              och det som stänger.

Ja nog är det svårt när droppar faller.
Skälvande av ängslan tungt de hänger,
klamrar sig vid kvisten, sväller, glider  -
tyngden drar dem neråt, hur de klänger.
Svårt att vara oviss, rädd och delad,
svårt att känna djupet dra och kalla,
ändå sitta kvar och bara darra  -
svårt att vilja stanna
                              och vilja falla.

Då, när det är värst och inget hjälper,
Brister som i jubel trädets knoppar.
Då, när ingen rädsla längre håller,
faller i ett glitter kvistens droppar
glömmer att de skrämdes av det nya
glömmer att de ängslades för färden  -
känner en sekund sin största trygghet,
vilar i den tillit
                              som skapar världen.

Für dich schiebe ich die Wolken weiter,

Für dich wein' und schrei und lach und leb ich,

Invictus

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.

In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.

Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.

It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

"The most important things are the hardest things to say. They are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them-words shrink things that seemed limitless when they were in your head to no more than living size when they're brought out. But it's more than that, isn't it? The most important things lie too close to wherever your secret heart is buried, like landmarks to a treasure your enemies would love to steal away. And you may make revelations that cost you dearly only to have people look at you in a funny way, not understanding what you've said at all, or why you thought it was so important that you almost cried while you were saying it. That's the worst, I think. When the secret stays locked within not for want of a teller but for want of an understanding ear." (Different Seasons by Stephen King, 1982)

THAT I did always love,
I bring thee proof:
That till I loved
I did not love enough.
  
That I shall love alway,       
I offer thee
That love is life,
And life hath immortality.
  
This, dost thou doubt, sweet?
Then have I     
Nothing to show
But Calvary.
Success is counted sweetest
By those who ne'er succeed.

moving on

Heart, we will forget him!
You and I, tonight!
You may forget the warmth he gave,
I will forget the light.

When you have done, pray tell me
That I my thoughts may dim;
Haste! lest while you're lagging.
I may remember him!

romeo & juliet

I can't do the talk, like the talk on TV
And I can't do a love song, like the way it's meant to be.
I can't do everything, but I'll do anything for you.
I can't do anything, 'cept be in love with you!
And all I do is miss you and the way we used to be.
All I do is keep the beat... and bad company.
Now all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme,
Juliet, I'd do the stars with you any time!

Thy looks are wan, thine eyes are wet.

Crossing the Bar

Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,

But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home

Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;

For though from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crossed the bar.

(Alfred Tennyson)

Within a dream.

to forget that you're more than i deserved

The red rose whispers of passion
And the white rose breathes of love
O the red rose is a falcon
And the white rose is a dove

But I send you a cream-white rosebud
With a flush on its petal lips
For the love that is purest and sweetest
Has a kiss of desire on the lips

white in the moon the long road lies...

WHITE in the moon the long road lies,
The moon stands blank above;
White in the moon the long road lies
That leads me from my love.

Still hangs the hedge without a gust,
Still, still the shadows stay:
My feet upon the moonlit dust
Pursue the ceaseless way.

The world is round, so travellers tell,
And straight though reach the track,
Trudge on, trudge on, ’twill all be well,
The way will guide one back.

But ere the circle homeward hies
Far, far must it remove:
White in the moon the long road lies
That leads me from my love.

when we two parted

They name thee before me,
A knell to mine ear;
A shudder comes o'er me
Why wert thou so dear?

Who knew thee too well:

Too deeply to tell.

Just when I'm about to make it work without you
You waltz right in the door
Just like you done before
And wrap my heart round your little finger
Here you come again
Just when I'm about to make it work without you
You look into my eyes
And light those dreamy eyes
And pretty soon I'm wonderin
How I came to doubt you
All you gotta do
Is smile that smile
And there go all my defenses
Just leave it up to you
And in a little while
Youre messin up my mind
An fillin up my senses

Here you come again
Lookin better than a body
Has a right to
An shakin me up so
That all I really know
Is here you come again

On the sleepin' city sidewalks:

globalisation at its best


Question: What is the truest definition of Globalization?
Answer: Princess Diana's death.
Question: How come?
Answer: An English princess with an Egyptian boyfriend crashes in a French tunnel, driving a German car with a Dutch engine, driven by a Belgian who was drunk on Scottish whisky, followed closely by Italian Paparazzi, on Japanese motorcycles; treated by an American doctor, using Brazilian medicines.


This is sent to you by an African, using Bill Gates' - (an American) technology, and you're probably reading this on your computer, that use Taiwanese chips, and a Korean monitor, assembled by Bangladeshi workers in a Singapore plant, transported by Indian lorry-drivers, hijacked by Indonesians, unloaded by Pakistani men, and trucked to you by Mexicans ...sent to you by a person in Zimbabwe. You are now reading it in Sweden

That, my friend, is Globalization.

Aire casi irrespirable

mitad hombre con mujer
flaco mas que un alfiler
no, no llores asi

Ten cuidado con el corazon
aqui abajo en este mundo material
te defiendes o te van a destrozar
por nada

Ten cuidado con el corazon
con las alas y con todo lo demas
un descuido y te pueden desplumar

Well, listen up, stud,Your life's been wasted
'til you've got' down on your knees and tasted
A red-headed woman, a red-headed woman.
It takes a red-headed woman to get a dirty job done.

Tight skirt, strawberry hair
Tell me what you've got, baby, waiting under there.
Big green eyes that look like, son, They can see every cheap thing that you ever done.

Well, I don't know how many girls you dated, man
You ain't lived 'til you've had your tires rotated
By a red-headed woman, a red-headed woman.

bubba, a smart man

One day, Jimmy Joe was walking down Main Street when he saw his buddy Bubba driving a brand new pickup. Bubba pulled up to him with a wide grin.
Bubba, where'd you get that truck !!
"Bobby Sue gave it to me" Bubba replied.
"She gave it to you? I knew she was kinda sweet on ya, but a new truck?"

"Well, Jimmy Joe, let me tell you what happened. We were driving out on County Road 6, in the middle of nowhere. Bobby Sue pulled off the road, put the truck in 4-wheel drive, and headed into the woods. She parked the truck, got out, threw off all her clothes and said, 'Bubba, take whatever you want'. So I took the truck!"

"Bubba, you're a smart man!. Them clothes woulda never fit you!"

european english

The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility.
As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English".

In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter.

There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.

In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where! more komplikated changes are possible.

high tech tonga

An American, Japanese, and a Zambian Tonga were sitting naked in the sauna.
Suddenly there is a beeping sound. The American presses his forearm and the beeping stops. The others look at him questioningly.
"That's my pager, I have a microchip under the skin of my arm."

A few minutes later a phone rings. The Japanese lifts his palm to his ear. When he finishes he explains,
"That's my mobile phone. I have a microchip in my hand."

The Tonga, feeling decidedly low-tech but not to be outdone, decided he had to do something just as impressive. He steps out of the sauna and goes to the toilet. He returns with a piece of Toilet paper hanging from his butt. The others raised their eyebrows and said,
"Wow! What's that?"
"I'm receiving a fax," he explains.

you're just too good to be true...

you're just too good to be true
can't take my eyes of you
you'd be like heaven to touch
at long last love has arrived
and i thank god i'm alive
you're just too good to be true
can't take my eyes of you

set the fire to the third bar

I find the map and draw a straight line
Over rivers, farms, and state lines
The distance from here to where you'd be
It's only finger-lengths that I see
I touch the place where I'd find your face
My finger in creases of distant dark places

seu amor e tudo que eu quero

Você tem um jeito que me encanta, me fascina com o seu olhar
Meigo de uma menina que sabe o que quer
Com você, o meu pensamento voa
Nunca fui assim com outra pessoa
Sei que é amor

Cada dia fico mais apaixonado
Quero te amar, quero ser amado
Te fazer carinho, também receber
Quero ter na boca o gosto do seu beijo
O meu sentimento é mais do que desejo
O meu coração só bate por você
Seu amor é tudo que eu quero
Enquanto o sol nascer
Eu sei que vou te amar
Seu amor é tudo que eu quero
Em cada estrela, brilha um pouco do amor
Que eu tenho pra te dar

'06 Sonnet 18

Shall I compare you to a summer's day?
I find you more beautiful and more gentle.
Strong winds blow in the much loved buds of the spring flowers
And the summer is way too short:
Sometimes, the sun shines too hot
And often it is hidden behind clouds
then everything that is beautiful is hidden in the shades.
And what is beautiful won't be beautiful forever
That will change by chance or by the way nature has planned to change the course
But you will always stay young,
And you will never lose the beauty that you own
Nor shall death claim you for his own
Because you will live forever,
As long as there is life on this earth,
So long will this poem live and give life to you.

romeo [v] juliet


Juliet: Ay me!

Romeo: She speaks!
O speak again, bright angel - for thou art
As glorious to this night, being o'er my head
As is winged messenger of heaven
Unto the white - upturned wond'ring eyes
Of mortals, that fall back to gaze upon him
When he bestrides the lazy-pacing clouds,
And sails upon the bosom of the air.

Juliet: O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou Romeo?
Deny thy father and refuse thy name;
Or if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love,
And I will no longer be a Capulet.

Romeo: Shall I hear more, or shall I speak at this?

Juliet: 'Tis but thy name that is my enemy
Thou art thyself, though not a Montague
What's a Montague? It's nor hand nor foot
Nor arm nor face nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet
So Romeo would, where he not Romeo call'd
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name;
And for thy name; which is no part of thee
Take all myself.

Porque se que no soy el mejor,

Tampoco el peor...

Tan solo soy lo que soy, y es asi...

No quiero fingir,

No voy a mentir...

Tan solo soy lo que soy y es asi

bubbles

I'm forever blowing bubbles,

Pretty bubbles in the air,

They fly so high, they reach the sky,

Then like my dreams they fade and die.
